Ruaha National Park's unusually high diversity of antelope is a function of its location,
which is transitional to the acacia savannah of East Africa and the miombo
woodland belt of Southern Africa. Grant's gazelle and lesser kudu occur here at
the very south of their range, alongside the miombo-associated sable and roan
antelope, and one of East Africa's largest populations of greater kudu, the park
emblem, distinguished by the male's magnificent corkscrew horns.

 Ruaha National Park is approximately 10,300 sq km. and is the Tanzania's
second-largest park. and part of a much larger ecosystem centred
on the uniquely vast Selous Game Reserve.
Go on a Ruaha Safari. The game viewing starts the moment the plane touches down. A giraffe races beside the airstrip, all legs and neck, yet oddly elegant in its awkwardness. A line of zebras parades across the runway in the giraffe's wake.
In the distance, beneath a bulbous baobab tree, a few representatives of Ruaha's 10,000 elephants - the largest population of any East African national park, form a protective huddle around their young.
Best time to visit:
For predators and large mammals, dry season (mid-May-December);
bird-watching, lush scenery and wildflowers, wet season
(January-April).
The male greater kudu is most visible in June, the breeding season.
